The role of positioning and navigation systems as a critical infrastructure can't be ignored in our today's applications. However, these critical systems face key challenges facing these systems, such as signal interference, spoofing, cybersecurity threats, and dependency on space-based infrastructure, which can compromise their reliability and effectiveness. Therefore, there is a need for innovative solutions to these challenges, such as integrating terrestrial and space-based systems for improved resilience, developing robust backup technologies, and deploying advanced threat detection mechanisms. Collaboration between governments, private sectors, and academia will be emphasized as a vital component of creating a resilient ecosystem for positioning and navigation systems. Recently, the US Department of Transportation has funded a consortium to establish the Center for Assured & Resilient Navigation in Advanced Transportation Systems (CARNATIONS). CARNATIONS focuses on proposing innovative research and workforce development solutions to deal with positioning and navigation challenges.
Director at Chicago State University & co-PI of the Center for Assured & Resilient Navigation in Advanced Transportation Systems (CARNATIONS), Chicago State University
